The alternatives. You can remove the battery and bring it inside where it's (presumably) not freezing, but it can still discharge over the season. If you choose to remove the battery and put it on a charger, keep it in the garage, since charging creates hydrogen gas, which is a fire hazard. You can skip the wooden block between battery and concrete floor, though; with modern plastic cases, there's no longer a chance of the damp floor causing discharge.
Baseline Funding means establishing a Funding Objective of keeping the Reserve cash balance above zero. Unfortunately, due to having little or no âmargin for errorâ this Funding Objective exposes associations to a high risk of special assessments (because things rarely happen exactly according to plan).
The key benefit of this process is that it determines the cost baseline against which project performance can be monitored and controlled. A project budget includes all the funds to execute the project. The cost baseline is the approved version of the time-phased project budget, but excluded management reserves.
